And he claimed it could end in "premeditated murder" if a boxer goes into the ring with the advantage of performance-enhancing substances.[Click Here To Read More]

Ggg didn't die at hands of Nell thankfully. But his career might have been shortened.
Because Nell didn't get tired he could hit gg g for longer and harder. Nelo punches in 12th round were probably as hard as in 1st round. gg g couldn't hit Nelo as Nell didn't get tired and vulnerable on bike all night.
Basically Nell was so fit he didn't lose composure under heavy artillery

Absolutely. This. PEDs in boxing has the worst consequences out of any sport and should be dealt with more harshly. We're talking about peoples lives ffs.

I would like to see a percentage of the boxers purse withheld from every fight. This money would be kept in an interest bearing account until say 5 years after he hangs up his gloves, at which time several of his blood tests from previous fights would be subjected to the latest detection techniques and a failure would result in forfeiture of the money. This would dissuade cheating and ensure that even the most profligate honest boxers would have a nest egg.
